Cali Spencer-Draper

Merced$15/hr | 11 yrs experience

Hello,

My name is California, but you can call me Cali. I am a mother of a brilliant little 7 year old boy. I spend most of my time homeschooling him, working part-time as a gourmet mushroom farmer and a performer for children's entertainment. To elaborate on the performing, I dress as popular characters such as; Elsa, Ariel, Wonder Woman, Belle, etc. and put on a magical show for children for their birthdays.

I plan to go back to college eventually to study forest ecology and forestry in hopes that someday I can own or manage our wonderful National Parks here in California. I also plan to run Forest School classes for children in the Merced area, where children can learn everyday life skills in a natural setting.

I know, as a parent myself, how hard it can be to trust someone with your child and how hard it can be to find someone reliable. I would like to provide that security for parents when they leave their children in my care.

Thank you for your time!

From 6 y/o til now I've always taken care of kids and babies from friends and family members. I gained the skills to get along with them no matter what. Every kid has always enjoyed my presence and comfort and essentially considered me their mother. Anywhere I go such as the store, park or just a walk around the neighborhood as long as there's kids, I automatically turn into the mother of all the children present. When I take my little siblings to the park, all the other kids become my responsibility as well. I find myself looking after them, playing with them and even asking the parent's permission for me to provide the kids with snacks. I'll often get told I'll be a wonderful mom, and I do agree with that. All I want is to hear them laugh and make sure me being there with them shows them all the affections they currently need.

My name is Emily Muratalla, I am 18 years old. I went to Golden Valley High School and graduated as a Salutatorian with honors in 2019. I attend Fresno State majoring in Sociology and plan to do my Master's in Counseling. I love kids so much, being with them truly makes me happy. I have worked with children before, giving swim lessons to toddlers between the ages of 2 1/2 to 8 years old. I also have volunteered at Camp Green Meadows as a cabin leader for sixth-grade field trips. I would describe myself as a caring, patient, and understanding person. I like being able to put a smile on children's faces by just being there with them coloring or playing fun games. I am bilingual in English and Spanish.

Have you considered a nanny share?

A nanny share is when one nanny cares for children from two different families. Each family saves significantly on child care expenses, while the nanny enjoys higher pay than the typical full-time position.
